How Do You Feel Now? - Wendy Kuo - MFA Fashion Design and the Arts '25

Playing with senses; hearing, taste, touch and sight. Dangerous yet harmless accessories you could wear to restrict addiction and prevent overconsumption. Research: It all began from the artist Getulio Alviani's work, his circular aluminum disc with an ear-shaped hole is neither the work of a jeweler nor an exercise in jewelry. It's a rejection of being comfortable. So my intention was to replicate the idea and do my own spin on it. I played around with the shapes and started off round and organic but ended up with spikes. Each one of them serves different purposes. I wanted to express the idea of living dangerously and being on the edge of over doing certain things. Aka, addiction. So I came up with accessories that could put a stop to cravings, an intention to hijack into the addiction system and get back to the normal routine. The last part of the video is to cancel everything out; think in peace and drop all the addiction.
